I just took this in on a trade, but I don't need a 5 string and something else has come up recently. The only trades I would be interested in would be a Jack Casady Goldtop or a smallish cab i.e. 1x12, 1x10 or similar. Sale Price is $1600 shipped in a Protec Contego bag just like Skjold ships them in now.

This bass is a punch monster. Compared it yesterday to an ash bodied bass. That bass sizzled and this bass punch in comparison.
Borrowed from the previous thread:
It has the '92 offset body style, 35" scale (but VERY playable because of the bridge placement and long horn), amazing B string, low action with no buzzing, a solid Mahogony body with a maple board/neck. Also has the cheaper Skjold/East 2-band pre-amp, that isn't as dynamic as the deluxe pre, but still sound great! Its got some maple knobs that I believe a former owner put on (not sure on that though).

See more pics from the original thread here FT: Skjold Pro Series 5 (Mahogony/Maple)

Bump for a bass I used to own.

Also, mr. Skjold told me he would upgrade the pre-amp at what I'm sure would be a reasonable cost. With that modification, this would be in my top 3 of five-string basses I've had or played. If I still played 5-strings...
